Château La Mission-Haut-Brion--Vintage 1989
1 jeroboam per lot
Château La Mission-Haut-Brion--Vintage 1989 Talence (Graves), cru classé In original wooden case "It is a spectacular wine, and as it ages in the bottle, it is quickly becoming one of my all-time favorite La Mission-Haut-Brions, ranking alongside the 1982, 1975, 1961, 1959, and 1955. The 1989 boasts a dense, thick, purple color, followed by a sweet, roasted cassis, chocolatey-scented nose with whiffs of tobacco, tar, and minerals. The wine is extremely full-bodied, unctuously-textured, sweet, jammy, and rich. Although it is still a youthful, unformed wine, it is already delicious to drink. It should develop additional bottle bouquet by the turn of the century, after which it will drink well for 15-20 years. Last tasted 11/96" Robert Parker Bordeaux Book, 3rd ed. (1998) 1 jeroboam per lot
